Zephaniah 3:15 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more.

The Lord hath taken away thy judgments. The cause for joy: "The Lord hath taken away thy judgments" - namely, those sent by Him upon thee. After the taking away of sin (Zephaniah 3:13) follows the taking away of trouble. When the cause is removed the effect will cease. Happiness follows in the wake of holiness.

The King of Israel, even the Lord, is in the midst of thee - though He seemed to desert thee for a time, He is now present as thy safeguard (Zephaniah 3:17).

Thou shalt not see evil anymore - thou shalt not experience it (Jeremiah 5:12; Jeremiah 44:17).
